ADHD is correlated with a variety of sleep problems:
Daytime sleepiness - Is higher in children with ADHD
Sleep Disordered Breathing (eg Obstructive Apnea) - This is in as many as 50% of children with ADHD
Restless legs Syndrome - Also very common in children with ADHD
Sleep deprivation is a big problem in America. According to this study in the National Institutes of Health treating the sleep problems effectively can eliminate attention and hyperactivity issues in some children.
Keep Sleepin'!
